I'm Ready To Be Terrified Again In Simulacra 2 - Part 1

from maya chats uh ooh there is a group chat new beginnings rex mina aria and maya so that's it it's official now we are a team do you think we should have a team name like being the great collectives in chimera, do it, this is not high? Amina from school and we have to be like everyone else. It's a fun idea being

part

of a group doesn't make us automatic friends. I wouldn't say no to how I make these relationships more friendly. Maybe I'll put my foot in your face area. It's coming hot, let it be, Rex anyway, Mina's true fans eat it up and her favorites get together, especially when they're all best friends.

You know having a name would sell it. Yes, there is nothing better than pretending and selling a lot of things. I haven't done it seriously, what's next? Color coded spandex suits yeah you get something better girl it has a name it should be fear of something people are jealous they ain't

part

of something like fatal fame or aesthetic that's good I like it it sounds arya . like they know how the internet works precisely seven nightmares okay, when good things happen this is from this poem by my favorite poet lex acostas this quote from this piece hits very close to home new beginnings these tears are not mine they are not done of my body my soul belong to the girl I once was these are not tears of sadness or regret because she is celebrating new beginnings that await her that is a beautiful thing that is beautiful maya rather cliché but I guess the cliché makes it with new Friends and New Beginnings I guess we knew what the group name was. right at the top of the screen, let's listen to this.

Oh, I thought I missed the chatter, but you all will be there too. I hate searching for these things with them. They are all so fake so if it gets too much I can share it. y'all yeah you're all so fake buy my juice clean this up this tweet is sponsored uh I guess not by the way I'm not saying all sponsorships are bad of course I've done some myself uh , what I'm saying is that it is. What they're doing seems very fake and clearly from the way she says things here it's just to sell things to fans, it's not really about doing things that interest you or things that you would naturally do anyway, like some of The games I've made are for things I really wanted to play or try, but if you're just doing it for the sake of selling things to fans, that's what's selling out, uh, I think I'll have to skip it, I'm so behind on work, clients breathing down my neck, tell me about the chat history, okay, it's unrecoverable, damn, but I'm curious to see how far these friends go, uh, internet, hey girl, I just saw your text, look , trolls are I'm going to troll so don't let this get to you, all these people are just jealous of us because they wish their lives were as fabulous as ours, okay so you really need to stop worrying about what What others think of you is fine, it's not bad advice.

Uh, I'm supposed to serve what the hell? uh, you're right, you're right, it's just annoying, very annoying. Hello, I know you've been very busy, but I need someone to talk to. I've been working hard but my numbers. They're still falling like crazy. A shiny new airhead shows up and everyone just leaves me for them. I don't know how I'm going to earn rent if this keeps up. Anyway, call me when you can. Okay, this is what I'm saying. you're doing it because it's like my numbers are going down, ah, I mean, your numbers are something you need to be aware of when it comes to social media and all that, but if that's the only reason you're doing it , then that's completely bothering you when the numbers go down, then maybe you need to reevaluate why you're doing it because otherwise,

again

, from firsthand experience, if you get too attached to the numbers once they go down, you'll start to feel bad about yourself and think that you are the problem and that it's not just that that's how the internet works and then people end up doing stupid things to try to gain validity and relevance

again

and then you end up with some really bad things on Internet, so just do your thing, enjoy it, be happy, buy my juice, clean, yeah, it's completely.

You shouldn't believe this type of marketing. Maybe you should yell at your parents trying to find things that are relevant to our story. You have always been a fighter. Aria. I wish it were. Half as brave as you were, sure, brave, but thanks, join me for a gallon of wine and a bad dirty dance. That sounds like a fun time. Can you tell me all about your strange date with Spark Taylor? Sounds like a creep, yeah? I kept trying to get him to go to a rooftop somewhere, but I also have something important to discuss and it could solve our problem for good.

Ooh, trying to get you to go to some roof was, wait, it's Taylor in the first game, there were things on a roof in the first game and one of them fell off the roof and died. I don't remember what his name was, although he was the guy who sang a lot. uh maya, we need to talk. I thought you agreed. I was going to First, the yoga retreat post, oh sorry, the timing seemed right so I followed it, oh my god maya, why do you keep undermining me like this even with the group? It's like nothing I said mattered anymore.

Sometimes I wish you would detox and disappear from existence, where is it? this is all coming from oh forget it what was i thinking working with someone who thinks they can feed off crystalline energy that was a really low blow you know what's low you're fucking self centered this group is your way of trying to control people and pretend that you're some kind of messiah or something this is happening I'm living for this gossip and this tea I if anyone is selfish and manipulative it's you it's been like this since college you think I don't know what you're saying about Me behind my back like when I told him you told lee i had herpes because you couldn't stand him asking me out instead of you oh my god, let him go al

ready

so much for love and light when you're holding grudges for eons.

I'm just going to let you calm down, okay, do whatever you want. It's best that we keep this arrangement purely professional, so we'll go out to the eleventh after this, this was the second one that he said and spoke for nine. Hello Maya, are you okay? I haven't heard from you in a while, you haven't abandoned me now that you're famous, okay? But seriously, I've been a little worried about you, I just want you to know that you can call me if you need to chat, okay, Maya no. I've been hearing from you for a while, everything's fine, everything's fine, Bessie, they just had a fight, I mean, they could have met in real life between then, but if it doesn't exist. in texting doesn't exist, I always like these games, although they are kind of a social media game and all that jazz and now it's kind of a deep dive into the lives of popular influencers and as someone who has some experience with that, this is going to be fun hey, yeah, I'm fine, I think maybe we can have another girls night soon, I need to get out of my house, things have been really weird, sure, let me know, okay, that was October 11, what is the date in the game?

Now I can check it, oh, October 28, okay, so maybe if I use the warden, I've just been trying to get some background, uh, ongoing cases, he said the case was closed, though okay, close cases, maybe in October, oh my god, this is it. laggy there we go document found i'm a genius um oh god oh god what's the preliminary compilation of west bandricka's investigation pd maya crane 25 female artist is that what we call it, it's actually exactly what my name is when I go to customs like when I got to La, I just left, I have a visa and everything I got while I was on tour, but for some reason they don't believe when I show them the visa and say, yeah, I'm here. doing a live stream, I'm doing all these other things, I was doing the live stream for the Christmas charity and then they look at it and say I don't trust it and then they like, what do you do it and sometimes instead of saying that I do youtube as my job because they get very confused when you say that, I say like I'm an online artist and then they say that sometimes they say oh okay and other times they say You're like this, it's so strange that my life is so difficult, my life is very hard, all these trips to the United States and it's okay, sometimes it takes me more than five minutes to get in, oh boohoo, I'm

ready

, I'm sharing it. an anecdotal story okay, so date of birth 1994 date of death October 21, 2018. maya you don't look very good you look like hellraiser I mean, I know you're dead and I'm sorry, but I'm trying a detective I have to solve the things uh facial tears multiple faint scars on the face reaching to the top and back of the head as a whole these scars seem to form a pattern number two facial tears the scars were deep and extremely thin blood vessels around the affected areas were cauterized, which possibly explains the absence of bleeding at the time of death.

No other visible burn injuries are present. Head injuries. A slight bruise on the back of the head, suggesting that the deceased collapsed to the ground from an upright position. The heart tears Jesus. tears in the muscle tissue around the heart that resemble a spontaneous coronary artery dissection. The cause of this tear is undetermined. It's like she's been exploited like a cheese wire. Or we used to have this thing where you put a hard-boiled egg in and it comes down and it just cuts everything up into fine little pieces it's like it's just been hit with a mesh a heated wire mesh notes and procedures the manner of death appears to be sudden in nature the deceased possibly experienced a momentary loss of control or consciousness before collapsing to the ground, probably due to a sudden strain on his heart, the injuries around his face could not be determined, so yes, let's say it's a heart attack and let's move on, this is strange, you can't just walk away. this over there uh what is this oh uh officer mrs. tinch t officer tench that's the guy in uh mindhunter good morning ma'am oh my what's going on is maya's apartment yeah she was found dead in the morning my god what happened, that's what We're here because you saw her or heard something last night.

Sorry, wait, who are we talking about? Her interview has been edited for clarity. Just someone in the department. Did you hear or see anything last night? Sorry, dear, these old eyes and ears are not. what they used to be, I can barely hear you right now, can you repeat your question? Okay ma'am, thank you for your time, have a nice day. Well, we have a report, a transcript, we have three more transcripts, but no. compiled so that we cannot read it collected evidence laptop webcam dslr camera unknown device plastic casing with three antennas looks like a self-made signal booster to modify wi-fi or phone signals polaroid photo one victim and three acquaintances mobile phone locks of hair several shoes prints a guitar pick and no other musical instrument okay that's the end of the document what's going on oh god Jesus Christ that's weird it's even weirder when it's actually on the phone because it's like taking control away, that would be such a strange thing to happen if you're sitting and looking at your phone and it suddenly takes control and shows you a picture of a dead body and its eyes open.

I don't like it, but I also like it a lot. At the same time, I guess you're done. with the files, whatever seems normal to you, ah, she woke up, what the hell happened to her face? It's our job to figure it out, I can't tell if it's lacerations or scars on his face and anything like that attacked by a jealous lover vampires are vampires for sure boss I figured it out idiot damn vampires leave bite marks on their necks oh yeah, I forgot anyway those Americans weren't the cause of death they look like old scars but so no signs of forced entry either uh no witnesses did you even read the challenge report?

I'm just asking questions, man, oh, the lady across the hall confirms that Maya was home that night, the last person to see her live, uh, what's up with the CCTV? Just our look, some interference, a friend, oh, interferes, fried the entire network in the apartment. Uh, funny thing, the same kind of interference we saw in Maya's video, only weaker from now on, nothing we have from the crime scene leads to anything substantial. Our best clue is still the phone. There is still more we don't know. I can feel it. This is. I like the movie Unfriended the Dark Web, which is a fun little movie.

The first movie without friends, I think it's good, I like it a lot because it's not the best movie ever made, but because of the style of the movie, I like it. a lot watch that one, uh, no buddy, watch searching and then watch friendless two, the dark web if you want, it's a little sillier, it's a little more over the top, but I still think it's a fun movie,you sound very sure there's more to the phone, maya's whole life is there, her being an influencer means she must have clearly documented it too. Oh, there are group chat messages.

I need your tenacity for this job. Every bit of information on that phone is potential evidence, so make sure you recover all the information. data can you okay the police contact someone again why are they snooping around you tell them anything oh i didn't realize i had a stopwatch don't just ask it feels super weird without maya here uh worry about something wait maya no way who the hell is this I'm a demon from the other side I'm a detective oh thank god it's not okay to scare us like this is this normal procedure I'm probably going to be in a lot of trouble for this uh we suspect foul play okay I don't have a timer on this one, uh, do you think you can't just find a body like that and then say that or not suspect foul play, oh my god, that's horrible news?

We've already spoken to the police, are we suspects guys please? Do the police have any leads so far? He knows that we are not going to leave stones on the road. Worried about something. Worried about something dear. Not just a curious look. Dealing with this publicity has been a nightmare for us. Yes, Arya, think about your precious followers first. God forbid. You take time off and don't share every little detail of your life with them. Oh, we're still mourning. You know, let's end this drama as soon as possible. Did anyone else see her the day she died?

Do you have any enemies? a good one, I'll just take a sip like she's the reason we're friends. We ran an influencer collective that maximized follower ROI in the Republic of Ireland and revolutionized content circulation. Okay, do you have a simple term for that? Because I'm a layman, I mean. I'm an influencer, I don't even know what it means, like we help each other influence, yeah, everything was fine until, how do I put this? Until Maya became legit cuckoo rex, she was acting a little weird, like she'd gone AWOL for a few days uh acting weird weird like what weird like paranoid weird like she hadn't slept much Maya said she wanted to quit the business to always but I thought he was just letting off steam entrepreneurship is hard man maybe I just couldn't handle it yeah entrepreneurship Just being an entrepreneur and an influencer on the internet and really revolutionizing content creation takes its toll on you man Social media in general takes its toll on you, why am I angry about this?

People, I'm just sad that she didn't tell us how stressed she was. Um, you're saying that her work pressure made her go through something unusual at work, uh, just a different day, you know, look, Maya always had high expectations of herself, I think. That was her downfall too, yes it sucks but some people just can't be saved. You know, the whole Rex man is an idiot, he's high and mighty and he preaches like, self-improvement, you could do it, you could be like me and then here he's like, yeah, he sucks or some people just don't have it, you know, and then they die thanks rex is all I can do now for now hope you figure it out soon let us know if you need anything else later crocodiles okay um.

Rex sent a message, but he didn't wait? It was Rex, wait? I want to go back and read some of these. Someone sent a message and it was like pigs shouldn't stray too far from blah blah oh the form background changed oh. God, oh Jesus Christ, stop, oh my God, that's so creepy, ah boss, I don't, it's okay, everything is back to normal, it seems I hope, Jesus, the toxicity was unbearable. I was on a semi successful esports team not long ago we were family. so this year it's okay I understand what's going on in jammer jabber no jammer um exhausted please some of us would rather work than cry and beg so we have jealousy is a terrible disease get well soon ok who do you Do I have to fight for you, queen, my God?

This is all too relatable, there are so many times online influencers do a bunch of stuff and then they get called out and suddenly it's like wow, everyone's just haters and oh and then everyone who supports them in the first place is just blind to everything and they just jump on it and say: who do I have to fight for you queen? and there is such a difficult line to figure out who is genuinely doing things and who is just covering your eyes. sometimes sometimes this culture is exhausting uh rex is saying oh women that's why get rex's army are the only real ones you and your little boys club are disgusting president of the aria park fan club um yeah that's disgusting but I feel like there's a bit of irony going on in your head everything is falling apart no one stays with me in my life mina pigs shouldn't stray too far from the farm or they will be slaughtered is rex threatening a good detective who will teach them a valuable lesson taking into account your lesson of minding your own business, you are a pig, everyone wishes they would kill you, really ma'am, you don't know who you are talking to, yes, sometimes social media is a pain in the ass because it is full of crap.

We find ourselves wondering who these people are, their inner circle of friends. I think it was good that you read their statements and then we found their prince at Maya's apartment, but that just means they were there a long time so our guys didn't bother to ask much. The idiots find something new about themselves. What does Rex say? I lost a friend recently knowing her. She wouldn't want him to be depressed. Greetings. Maya. Dedicating my next million earned to you. Rex. You are an insufferable piece of road no offense. Do you ever touch those guys? dead, we could not do that strictly, so you paid her well, she's dead, have some common decency, for the love of god, I can't forgive rex for even answering that perverted question you all posted about maya, but none of them were pictures of her or your friendship hashtag cash grab oh yeah, break some rules damn, they look defensive, they sound harmless, they looked defensive, they didn't actually look defensive, they were just all over the place, everyone worked together, I said anything new, we already know everyone. influence or whatever social media says something about maya maya was acting weird before she died that's pretty obvious from the videos she left what do you think they're hiding something that seems fine?

Now I'm getting real messages from real life. like we're on the same page change of tactics we need to attack from multiple angles I need you to talk to them individually what I'm looking for boss send me in coach what am I going to get I'm going to crack the whip on these bad boys find out who they really are and what they are your connection with maya on a professional and personal level. Who do I start with? You decide to warm them up a little. Make it conversational. He tries to get his alibis for the night Maya died.

Be on the lookout for any slip-ups, if they get their guard down they might accidentally reveal too much, okay next time we'll kick some serious influencer's ass, that means I'll leave this video here, this is fun so far, playing around. Playing it on the phone is really interesting because it actually feels like you're looking on a phone and I really like that aspect because the UI is perfectly designed for this, the only problem is that when I'm sitting here in front of my computer and everything is like a big screen and all that kind of stuff, I'm a little more involved in it, I'm a little more like I say, the atmosphere is a little more fascinating and I feel like I'm more immersed in it, that's what I'm trying to say.

Having it on a phone disconnects me from the experience a little bit, so it's not as scary as I think it would be if I was playing the PC version, um, but that would mean waiting a long time, but so far it's interesting. I like it. The second type of DLC simulation game. What was the name of Similac or Pipe Dreams? That was bad. I did not like. that game, the first one, is really good, it's one of my favorite horror games because it was so different and unique and I really liked it a lot, but their chimera game was kind of shit and I didn't really get into it.

I didn't really care for any of the characters, but I'm already invested in this one. I like the characters. I like the main girl. I like all this as an influencer. Who are they online versus who are they really? For some people there's a huge dividing line and then for other people, especially like all the people that I would be closest to, the line between who's online and who's not online is a very, very thin line, they're basically the same. person online, they're just kind of Uploaded a little more for entertainment purposes because that's their job, they're here to entertain until next time.

I'm really excited to find out more about these people's lives, especially Rex, uh, Maya looks like she's suffering a little. a little bit she's like there's something about her that hurts her so she's trying to project a more positive aspect to the world to maybe project what she wants onto herself if you know what I mean um what was the name of the another girl, arya, she or anya i already forgot her name i'm so sorry um arya yeah she um seems a little more like she needs followers i need attention rex it's a part of him it's all over the place um and he's definitely in it just for the money and fame and to appear smarter than she really is and then who is the other Mina?

I'm really curious about her because she seems genuine and honest and nothing has caught her attention yet with her relationship with Maya, so let's see what happens, let's get some sweet gas in the next one, maybe we'll just do that, but until Next, me in boss, what does your name mean, big daddy, boss, let's sign off? It sucks to record when you. Are you sick
